ITV's This Morning returned to our screens today for the first time since former host Phillip Schofield announced his immediate departure from the show.
In a statement, released on Saturday (May 20), the presenter announced that after 20 years he had quit the show and confirmed he had presented his final episode on Thursday, May 18. The announcement comes following rumours of a feud between the co-hosts, but Phillip will continue to present peak time shows for ITV including next month’s The British Soap Awards and a new prime time series.
Alison and Dermot have become fan favourites among viewers after joining the show in 2021, following the departure of Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford. But for years, viewers have been used to seeing Phillip and Holly on the This Morning sofa together, as well as co-presenting on other shows.
